Transportation: Peddell's Thursday Island Tours

  • 'Mode': AROUND
    Category: Other
    Getting TO/AROUND: We took a short tour of Thursday Island with Peddell's Thursday Island Tours in what I could imagine is the only tour operator in this part of the world. The guide Sue was great and she gave us a comprehensive overview of the history and other aspects of the island.

    Getting TO/AROUND: Qantaslink operate daily flights from Cairns to Horn Island. There is no airstrip on Thursday Island therefore one lands on nearby Horn Island. A ferry or water taxi transports guests then to the island.
